Glad to see that good old American know-how is helping us but OBAMA and his bastards wanted to put a new tax on such medical devices.

It would have added anywhere from $200-300 on my defibrilator/pacemaker which cost between $20,000 and $30,000 a piece (depending on the model and medical needs).

This effort was beaten back but don’t count on Obie’s marxists from trying again. It might even be found somewhere in the Obamacare bill where there are dozens if not hundreds of hidden taxes.

Unless something is done on Nov. 6, 2012, medical innovations may be brought down to a crawl.

To the young lady, enjoy life!

You got that right. Why government can’t leave the private sector alone, I don’t know. The private sector will make just about anything affordable and reliable based on a free market.

Yes, Obama does wish to tax the crap out of these medical devices.

Damn his hyde
